virginia virtually tied but romney technically ahead. we thought, all right, let's use these and see if spending really was the deciding factor on the road to 270, what it would mean. just for this week alone, if we give the president the state where he's outspending romney, where would that stand? obviously once you put florida in and florida alone, that's big. but give them colorado, ohio, new hampshire and wisconsin and you see where that puts them at 307 where romney is outspending him, would get him up north carolina, virginia, iowa, nevada, only up to 231. that's what this florida move is so significant. right? if you take florida away from the president and give it to romney, the president would still be there. you see it brings other states in play. this florida move by the president to try to outspend romney there, force him into that state, take him out of other states is one of the more significant tactical things that happened this week. we know we're having a larger conversation, foreign policy, we'll see where that ends up.

one a day 50+. >>> here in virginia, we're not better off under president obama. his defense cuts were weak in national security and threaten over 130,000 jobs. here in ohio, we're not better off under president obama. his defense cuts will weaken national security and threaten over 20,000 ohio jobs. >> those were recent ads released by the romney campaign, attempting to appeal to voters in the swing states of virginia and ohio. the ads may seem target but they are old school compared with the data minding tactics campaigns are using to sway the handful of undecided voters who will determine the election. over the last 12 years a quiet revolution has been taking place in politics and involves a type of political science enabling strategists to figure out how a person will vote before election day. in an article on the romney campaign, sasha issenberg writes, quote -- joining the panel now is sasha issenberg, a columnist slate and author of the book "the victory lab, the secret science of winning campaigns" which goes on sale tomorrow and will continue to boost sal
